How much value do you put into visual direction?

A lot, which is why I prefer the aestetics of cel animation.

None, I'm gay.

>>151834631
Yeah, I can't really disagree with that.

Also I forgot sound direction and probably loads of other stuff that goes into it.

It's a long shot but does anyone know who directed episode 22 of Urusei Yatsura?

I assume it was the first episode of the second season, because it came right after a big special.

The show has been great so far, but this episode was something else visually.

>>151834091
A shit ton. It's part of what makes Phantom World worth watching despite pretty weak characterization.

True enough in that Phantom World's visuals don't "mean" anything and Mai's fights are well animated but poorly contextualized. There's still a lot to love about Phantom World's visuals. The water animation was gorgeous.

Reminder that this is just your opinion no matter how many threads you post it in.

Don't know about Kyousougiga, but you're right about Uchouten. The animation isn't anything to write home about either, but it's one of those rare animu that gets by with a strong sauce alone.

I love KyoAni but visual direction can't save phantom sales from its garbage script

Anime is a visual medium.

Script doesn't really matter when you have amazing visuals.

Ishihara is a really bad director.

>>151834091
Bad visuals can ruin an anime.
Good visuals cannot make an anime.

>>151840076
Characters > Visual Direction > Animation quality > plot

Flip Flappers is good not because of its visual direction but because the visual direction builds the characters.

"It's a visual medium" is something you say to streamfags to point out that the way they're watching it is wrong.
You use your eyes, obviously. But your brain also wants to think so writing is extremely important.

>>151840151
desu I think the term visual medium is misleading.

When I started reading manga I found the absence of music and voices far more jarring than looking at still images.

He really isn't. He might be the most otaku-like minded (maybe after Takemoto) of KyoAni's directors but he's still great at making touching scenes and making a series memorable. Also he can make completely fucking awesome chuuni scenes. Every chuuni scene in Chuunibyou and Phantom World was very cool.

>>151840329
but that scene was ishidate

>>151840442
Ishidate was the episode director but that doesn't mean Ishihara had nothing to do with it. Shows have a director as a whole for a reason. Every summoning scene in Phantom World was amazing, especially the Cthulu ones.

You watched it wrong
